    I didn't know they had those... how does it work? Like one of those old peddle powered Singer sewing machines?

    JT, I see you really like cutting the tops off of plastic bottles and use 'em as containers don't cha? LOL

    As mentioned above, reloading can turn into another one of those money pit hobbies that you can't get enough of.

      I reload 500, 45 acp. for 96 bucks. 45Colt is about the same. 5.56, Just a little more. It's alot of work to reload rifle ammo, But $120 for 500 rnds of 5.56 is worth my time. Just buy a bunch of books.... The equipment will pay for itself if you shoot often and will turn 3" groups from factory ammo into shooting through the same hole.
      10 rnds at 100 with reloads out of a 16" AR carbine...


      Here's 20 on a different target...But I was shooting pretty fast. The RO told me to slow down.


      Work up a load for your rifle...

        Cheap, and effective. I don't use em anymore. Now I use the boxes all my reloading equipment came in, and ziplock bags
